2021 Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) Test (Career Exploration) (districts serving grades 10–12): Senate Bill 1843 requires that each school year, each school district and open-enrollment charter school provide students in grades 10–12 the opportunity to take the ASVAB and consult with a military recruiter.

Performance STAAR: A comprehensive testing program for public school students in grades 3–8 or high school courses with end-of-course (EOC) assessments. The STAAR program is designed to measure to what extent a student has learned, understood, and is able to apply the concepts and skills expected at each grade level or after completing each course for which an EOC assessment exists. Each STAAR assessment is linked directly to the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS). The TEKS are the state-mandated content standards that describe what a student should know and be able to do upon completion of a course. For more information on the TEKS, see the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills website at http://tea.texas.gov/curriculum/teks/.

Other Important Information:

STAAR (with and without accommodations) and STAAR Alternate 2. The TAPR and the Texas Performance Reporting System (TPRS) include performance on STAAR and STAAR Alternate 2.

Spanish STAAR. All STAAR assessments in grades 3, 4, and 5 are available in both English and Spanish. The TAPR and the TPRS include performance on the Spanish STAAR.

Rounding of STAAR results. STAAR performance shown on the TAPR and TPRS is rounded to whole numbers. For example, 49.877% is rounded to 50%; 49.4999% is rounded to 49%; and 59.5% is rounded to 60%.

Masking. STAAR performance rates are masked when necessary to comply with FERPA. For more information, see the Explanation of Masking at https://rptsvr1.tea.texas.gov/perfreport/account/2021/masking.html.

STAAR Performance (2020–21) The STAAR Performance section displays performance results by grade, subject and performance level for students in the accountability subset, which are students enrolled in the same district/campus on both the snapshot date (PEIMS October snapshot) and the testing date. The STAAR Performance–All Students section of the TPRS displays STAAR performance by grade, subject, and performance level and includes all students tested, regardless of whether they were in the accountability subset.

Bilingual Education/ESL (2020–21) Bilingual Education (BE): Dual-language program that enables emergent bilingual (EB) students/English learners (ELs) to become proficient in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in the English language through the development of literacy and academic skills in the primary language and English. This category includes the following:

• BE Trans Early Exit. Bilingual program model in which students identified as EB students/ELs are served in both English and another language and are prepared to meet reclassification criteria to be successful in English-only instruction not earlier than two or later than five years after the student enrolls in school.

• BE Trans Late Exit. Bilingual program model in which students identified as EB students/ELs are served in both English and another language and are prepared to meet reclassification criteria to be successful in English-only instruction not earlier than six or later than seven years after the student enrolls in school.

Texas Education Agency | Governance and Accountability | Performance Reporting 3 of 45

Page 4: 2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report Glossary

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary

• BE Dual Two-Way. Bilingual/biliteracy program model in which students identified as EB students/ELs are integrated with non-EB/non-EL students and are served in both English and another language and are prepared to meet reclassification criteria to be successful in English-only instruction not earlier than six or later than seven years after the student enrolls in school. This model provides ongoing instruction in literacy and academic content in English and another language with at least half of the instruction delivered in the non-English program language for the duration of the program.

• BE Dual One-Way. Bilingual/biliteracy program model in which students identified as EB students/ELs are served in both English and another language and are prepared to meet reclassification criteria to be successful in English-only instruction not earlier than six or later than seven years after the student enrolls in school. This model provides ongoing instruction in literacy and academic content in the students' primary language as well as English, with at least half of the instruction delivered in the students' primary language for the duration of the program.

English as a Second Language (ESL): An English acquisition program that enables EB students/ELs to become proficient in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in the English language through the integrated use of second language acquisition methods. This category includes the following:

• ESL Content-Based. An English acquisition program that serves students identified as EB students/ELs through English instruction by a teacher appropriately certified in ESL under TEC, §29.061(c), through English language arts and reading, mathematics, science, and social studies.

• ESL Pull-Out. An English program that serves students identified as EB students/ELs through English instruction provided by an appropriately certified ESL teacher under the TEC, §29.061(c), through English language arts and reading. Instruction shall be provided by the ESL teacher in a pull-out or inclusionary delivery model.

Alternative Language Program (ALP): An alternative language program provided to EB students/ELs for whom the LEA does not have the appropriately certified teachers for the required bilingual education or ESL program for the current school year. This category includes the following:

• ALP Bilingual (Exception). An alternative language program to the required bilingual education (BE) program approved by the TEA for the current school year due to the LEA’s submission of a bilingual education exception application.

• ALP ESL (Waiver). An alternative language program to the required English as a second language (ESL) program approved by the TEA for the current school year due to the LEA’s submission of an ESL waiver application.

Emergent Bilingual (EB) Students/English Learners (EL): The count and percentage of students whose primary language is other than English and who are in the process of acquiring English. As a result of the 87th Texas Legislature, the term “emergent bilingual student” replaced the term of “limited English proficient (LEP) student” used in the Texas Education Code (TEC), Chapter 29, Subchapter B, and thus, will be changing the term of “English learner (EL)” used in 19 TAC Chapter 89, Subchapter BB. These terms describe the same group of Texas students. In the revised Texas Education Data Standards (TEDS),

Texas Education Agency | Governance and Accountability | Performance Reporting 4 of 45

Page 5: 2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report Glossary

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary the terms of “emergent bilingual” and “English learner” have been bridged as EB/EL. The term “English learner” is still used in federal regulations and guidance. This category includes:

• EB/EL with Parental Denial. Students identified as EB students/ELs whose parents have denied all bilingual and ESL program services.

• Never EB/EL. Students who have never been identified as EB students/ELs (non-EB students/non-ELs).

• Total EB/EL (Current). Students currently identified as EB students/ELs, including those served in a standard or alternative bilingual or ESL program as well as those with a parental denial of services.

• Monitored & Former EB/EL. Students who were once identified as EB students/ELs but have reclassified as English proficient, including students within their four years of state and federal monitoring and those beyond monitoring years.

STAAR Participation (2020–21) The percentage of students who were administered a STAAR assessment, STAAR Alternate 2, Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS), TELPAS Alternate, and/or an SAT/ACT. The details on the participation categories are as follows:

Assessment Participant: 1) number of answer documents with a score code of S, 2) number of STAAR Alternate 2 testers with a score code of N, 3) number of A or O reading answer documents with a scored TELPAS or TELPAS Alternate assessment, 4) number of A or O mathematics answer documents with a scored TELPAS or TELPAS alternate assessment for year 1-5 asylee/refugees and students with interrupted formal education (SIFEs), and 5) number of accelerated testers’ EBRW SAT, ELA ACT assessments, ACT science, and mathematics SAT and ACT assessments.

Included in Accountability: scored answer documents

Not included in Accountability: answer documents counted as participants but not included in performance calculations

♦ Mobile: answer documents were excluded because the students enrolled in the district or campus after the TSDS PEIMS fall snapshot.

♦ Other Exclusions. The following answer documents were excluded from performance calculations:

Answer documents for students who were tested only on the TELPAS/TELPAS Alternate or TELPAS/TELPAS Alternate plus STAAR assessments with score codes of A or O.

Answer documents of students who are either EB students/ELs who have been in school in the U.S. for one year.

Answer documents of STAAR Alternate 2 testers with a score code of N.

Not Tested: answer documents with score codes A or O or accelerated testers without an SAT/ACT assessment

Texas Education Agency | Governance and Accountability | Performance Reporting 5 of 45

Page 6: 2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report Glossary

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary

Absent: answer documents with score code A

Other: answer documents with score code O

The denominator for participation is the sum of these five categories: Included in Accountability, Mobile, Other Exclusions, and Not Tested (Absent and Other). STAAR Participation Rate is rounded to a whole number. For example, 94.49% is rounded to 94%. Small values may show as zero: 0.4% is rounded to 0%, and 0.6% is rounded to 1%. (Data source: STAAR and TELPAS File)

Accelerated Testers: SAT/ACT results for students who completed STAAR end-of-course (EOC) assessments while in middle school.

Attendance and Graduation

Attendance, Graduation, and Dropout Rates (2020–21) Attendance Rate: The percentage of days that students were present. The rate for 2019–20 is based on student attendance through the fourth six weeks due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Only students in grades 1–12 are included in the calculation. Attendance is calculated as follows:

total number of days that students in grades 1–12 were present during the 2019–20 school year

total number of days that students in grades 1–12 were in membership during the 2019–20 school year

(Data source: PEIMS 42400)

Chronic Absenteeism: The unduplicated number of K–12 students enrolled for at least 10 days and absent for 10 percent or more days. Chronic Absenteeism is calculated as follows:

total number of K–12 students enrolled for at least 10 days and absent for 10 percent or more days during the 2019–20 school year

total number of K–12 students enrolled for at least 10 days during the 2019–20 school year

(Data source: PEIMS 42400)

Annual Dropout Rate: The percentage of students who drop out of school during a school year. Annual dropout rates are shown for districts and campuses that serve grades 7–8 and/or 9–12. State law prohibits including a student who meets any of the following criteria from campus and district annual dropout rate calculations:

• Is ordered by a court to attend a high school equivalency certificate program but has not earned a high school equivalency certificate

• Was previously reported to the state as a dropout

• Was in attendance but not in membership for purposes of average daily attendance (i.e., students for whom school districts are not receiving state Foundation School Program [FSP] funds)

Texas Education Agency | Governance and Accountability | Performance Reporting 6 of 45

Page 7: 2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report Glossary

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary

• Was initially enrolled in a school in the United States in any grade 7 through 12 as an unschooled refugee or asylee as defined by TEC §39.027(a-1)

• Attends a district exclusively as a function of having been detained at a county detention facility and is not otherwise a student of the district in which the facility is located or is being provided services by an open-enrollment charter school exclusively as the result of having been detained at the facility

• Is incarcerated in a state jail or federal penitentiary as an adult or as a person certified to stand trial as an adult

• Is a student in a Texas Juvenile Justice Department facility or residential treatment facility served by a Texas public school district

• Is at least 18 years of age as of September 1 and has satisfied the credit requirements for high school graduation; has not completed his or her individualized education program (IEP); and is enrolled and receiving IEP services

Annual Dropout Rate (Gr 7–8). This includes only grades 7 and 8. It is calculated as follows:

number of dropouts in grades 7 and 8 during the 2019–20 school year

number of students in grades 7 and 8 in attendance at any time during the 2019–20 school year

Annual Dropout Rate (Gr 9–12). This includes grades 9 through 12. It is calculated as follows:

number of dropouts in grades 9–12 during the 2019–20 school year

number of students in grades 9–12 in attendance at any time during the 2019–20 school year

Both annual dropout rates appear on campus, district, region, and state TAPRs. The state and region annual dropout rates that are reported on district and campus TAPRs, however, are calculated without the exclusions required for campus and district calculations.

Note that with all annual dropout rate calculations, a cumulative count of students is used in the denominator. This method for calculating the dropout rate neutralizes the effect of mobility by including in the denominator every student ever reported in attendance at the district or campus throughout the school year, regardless of length of enrollment. For a more complete description of dropout rates and exclusions, see the Secondary School Completion and Dropouts in Texas Public Schools, 2019–20 reports, available on the TEA website at http://tea.texas.gov/acctres/dropcomp_index.html.

For detailed information on data sources, see Appendix H in the 2021 Accountability Manual (Data source: PEIMS 40203, 40110, 42400, and 42500)

Longitudinal Rates: The status of a group (cohort) of students after four years in high school (4-Year Longitudinal Rate), after five years in high school (5-Year Extended Longitudinal Rate), or after six years in high school (6-Year Extended Longitudinal Rate).

For the 4-Year Longitudinal Rate, the cohort consists of students who first attended ninth grade in 2016–17. They are followed through their expected graduation with the Class of 2020.

Texas Education Agency | Governance and Accountability | Performance Reporting 7 of 45

Page 8: 2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report Glossary

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary For the 5-Year Extended Longitudinal Rate, the cohort consists of students who first attended ninth grade in 2015–16. They are followed for five years and included if they graduated within a year after their expected graduation with the Class of 2019.

For the 6-Year Extended Longitudinal Rate, the cohort consists of students who first attended ninth grade in 2014–15. They are followed for six years and included if they graduated within two years after their expected graduation with the Class of 2018.

Additional Information on Cohorts:

A student transfers into a campus, district, or state cohort when he or she moves into the cohort from another high school in Texas, from another district in Texas, or from out of state.

A student transfers out of a campus or district cohort when he or she moves to another public high school in Texas or moves to another district in Texas. Note that these students are transferred into the cohort of the high school or district to which they moved. There are also students who move out of state or out of the country and students who transfer to private schools or who are home-schooled. These types of transfer students cannot be tracked and are not included in longitudinal rate calculations.

A student does not change cohorts if he or she repeats or skips a grade. A student who begins with the 2016–17 ninth-grade cohort remains with that cohort. A student who started the ninth grade in 2016–17 but takes 5 years to graduate (i.e., graduates in May 2021) is still part of the 2020 cohort; he or she is not switched to the 2021 cohort. This student would be considered a continuing student and counted as part of the Continued HS number for the Class of 2020. This is also true for the five-year and six-year extended longitudinal cohorts.

There are four student outcomes used in computing each longitudinal rate:

4-Year Longitudinal Rate

(1) Graduated: The percentage who received their high school diploma in four years or fewer by August 31, 2020 for the 2020 cohort.

Profile

Student Information (2020–21) Please note, the Enrollment section of this report was created in 2019–20. The definitions below describe the nuances between Membership and Enrollment. If comparing the data shown from this year’s report to reports prior to 2019–20, use the data displayed under Membership.

Enrollment: Students reported as enrolled as of the last Friday in October (October 30, 2020).

Membership: Membership differs from enrollment, as it does not include those students who are served for less than two hours per day. A student is in membership if he/she is enrolled and is either

• scheduled to attend at least two hours of instruction each school day or

• participating in an alternative attendance accounting program.

For example, the count of Total Students excludes students who attend a non-public school but receive some services, such as speech therapy—for less than two hours per day—from their local school district.

Total Students: The total number of public school students who were reported at any grade from early childhood education through grade 12. (Data source: PEIMS 40110)

Students by Grade: The count of students in each grade divided by the total number of students. (Data source: PEIMS 40110)

Emergent Bilingual Students (EB)/English Learners (EL): The count and percentage of students whose primary language is other than English and who are in the process of acquiring English.

The percentage of EB students/ELs is calculated by dividing the number of EB students/ELs by the total number of students in the district or campus. Not all students identified as EB students/ELs receive bilingual or English as a second language instruction. (Data source: TELPAS file)

Students with Disciplinary Placements: The count and percentage of students placed in alternative education programs under Chapter 37 of the Texas Education Code. Districts report the disciplinary actions taken toward students who are removed from the classroom for at least one day. Although students can have multiple removals throughout the year, this measure counts students only once and includes only those whose removal results in a placement in a disciplinary alternative education program or juvenile justice alternative education program. It is calculated as follows:

number of students with one or more disciplinary placements

number of students who were in attendance at any time during the school year

For 2020–21, the following 19 disciplinary action codes are included as disciplinary placements: 02, 03, 04, 07, 08, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 57, 59, 60, and 61. (Data source: PEIMS 44425)

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary Mobility: The count and percentage of students who have been in membership for less than 83 percent of the school year (i.e., missed six or more weeks).

number of mobile students in 2019–20

number of students who were in membership at any time during the

2019–20 school year

This rate is calculated at the state, region, district, and campus level and is disaggregated by race/ethnicity, economically disadvantaged status, special education status, and emergent bilingual status. The mobility rates shown are based on the count of mobile students identified at the campus level. The district mobility rate reflects school-to-school mobility within the same district or from outside the district. The region mobility rate reflects school-to-school mobility within the same region or from outside the region. (Data source: PEIMS 42400)

Attrition Rates: The percentage of students enrolled in fall 2019–20 who did not return to the same campus in the fall of 2020–21. This calculation is adjusted to account for the grade levels available to students at each campus as well as additional factors. For instance, students were excluded from the calculation if they were enrolled at the highest grade offered at the campus, were not considered to be in membership for the purposes of calculating average daily attendance for funding purposes or were at a campus in 2019–20 that was no longer active in 2020–21. Students who were retained in grade, including those in grade 12, remained in the calculation. Attrition Rate is calculated as follows:

number of students enrolled in fall 2019 – number of students who returned in fall 2020

number of students enrolled in fall 2019

Retention Rates by Grade: The percentage of students in Texas public schools who enrolled in fall 2020 in the same grade in which they were reported for the last six-week period of the prior school year (2019–20).

the number of students enrolled in the same grade from one school year to the next

the number of students enrolled from one school year who return the next year or who graduate

Special education retention rates are calculated and reported separately because local retention practices differ for students served by special education.

The TAPR and TPRS show retention rates only for grades K–9. Retention rates for all grades can be found in Grade-Level Retention in Texas Public Schools, 2019–20, available from TEA. (Data source: PEIMS 40110)

Data Quality (not on campus profile): The percentage of errors made by the district in the PEIMS Student Leaver Data.

Percent of Underreported Students. Underreported students are 7th–12th graders who were enrolled at any time during the prior year, who are not accounted for through district records or

TEA processing in the current year, and for whom the district did not submit a leaver record. A district is required to submit a leaver record for any student served in grades 7–12 the previous year unless the student received a Texas high school equivalency certificate (TxCHSE) certificate by August 31, is a previous Texas public school graduate, moved to and enrolled in another Texas public school district, or returned to the district by the end of the school start window. (For 2019–20 the end of the school-start window was September 25, 2020.)

Class Size Averages by Grade and Subject: The average class size by grade (elementary) or selected subjects (secondary classes).

For secondary classes, averages are determined by totaling the number of students served (in a subject at the campus) and dividing that sum by the count of classes for that subject.

For elementary classes, the average is determined based on the instructional model. If an elementary teacher teaches all subjects to the same group of fourth graders all day, the class size average is simply the number of fourth grade students served by that teacher. If an elementary teacher teaches a single subject to five different sections of fourth graders each day, however, the average is calculated the same way as for secondary subjects. For example, one fourth grade science teacher teaches five science classes each day with 18, 20, 19, 21, and 22 students in each class. The total of 100 students divided by the five classes produces an average class size of 20 students for that teacher.

The following rules apply to the average class sizes:

• Classes identified as serving regular, compensatory/remedial, gifted and talented, career and technical, and honors students are included in the calculation.

• English language arts (ELA), mathematics, science, social studies, languages other than English, computer science, and career and technical education are included in the calculation, as are self-contained classrooms.

• Classes where the number of students served is reported as zero are not included.

• Service codes with the “SR” prefix are not included.

• Teacher roles coded as “teacher” and/or “substitute teacher” are included.

• Only class settings coded as “regular class” are included.

• Missing partial FTE counts are not included.

• Elementary classes in which the number of students exceeds 100 are not included.

• Mixed grade-level class averages are not included.

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary Staff Information (2020–21) Total Staff: The total count of staff which includes professional staff (teachers, professional support, administrators), educational aides, and (on the district profile) auxiliary staff. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Professional Staff: The full-time equivalent (FTE) count of teachers, professional support staff, campus administrators, and on the district profile, central office administrators. Staff are grouped according to roles as reported in PEIMS. Each type of professional staff is shown as a percentage of the total staff FTE. See Appendix B for all PEIMS Role IDs. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Educational Aides: The count and percentage of paraprofessional staff who are reported with a role of 033 (Educational Aide) or 036 (Certified Interpreter). The FTE counts of educational aides are expressed as a percentage of the total staff FTEs. See Appendix B for all PEIMS Role IDs. (Data source: PEIMS 30090)

Auxiliary Staff (not on campus profile): The count of full-time equivalent (FTE) staff reported in PEIMS employment and payroll records who are not reported in the PEIMS 30090 Staff – Responsibilities record. The auxiliary staff (and educational aide who performs routine classroom tasks under the general supervision of a certified teacher or teaching team) are expressed as a percentage of total staff. For auxiliary staff, the FTE is the value of the percentage of day worked. (Data source: PEIMS 30060 and 30090)

Librarians and Counselors (Headcount): The headcount of librarians and counselors is based on full-time equivalent (FTE) for full-time and part-time headcounts. Librarians and counselors are considered part-time when the FTE count is less than or equal to .85 (For example, if an FTE count is less than or equal to .85, the part-time headcount is equal to 1).

Librarians and counselors are headcounts, not sums of FTEs. The district headcount is not a sum of the campus headcount. For example, a counselor spends 50 percent of their time at the elementary (0.50 FTE) and 50 percent of their time at the high school (0.50 FTE). On each of the campus reports, this counselor will be reflected as 1.0 part-time counselor. On the district report, the counselor will be reflected as 1.0 full-time counselor since the FTE count is greater than .85 (0.50 FTE plus 0.50 FTE=1.0 FTE). See Appendix B for PEIMS Role IDs (Professional Support Staff). (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Total Minority Staff: The total count of minority staff is the sum of the FTE counts for all non-white staff groups (African American, Hispanic, American Indian, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Two or More Races). The minority staff FTE count is expressed as a percentage of the total staff FTE. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Teachers by Ethnicity and Sex: The counts of teacher FTEs by ethnic group and by sex. Counts are also expressed as a percentage of the total teacher FTEs. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Teachers by Highest Degree Held: The distribution of degrees held by teachers. The FTE counts of teachers with no degree, a bachelor’s degree, a master’s degree, or a doctorate are expressed as a percentage of the total teacher FTEs. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Experience of Campus Leadership: The average years of experience for principals and assistant principals.

Average Years as Principal: The number of completed years of experience as a principal, regardless of district or interruption in service. These amounts are added together and divided by the number of all principals reported for the campus.

Average Years as Principal with District: The number of years a principal is employed in the district regardless of any interruption in service. The amounts are added together and divided by the number of principals reported for the district.

Average Years as Assistant Principal: The number of completed years of experience as assistant principal, regardless of district or interruption of service. The amounts are added together and divided by the number of assistant principals reported for the campus.

Average Years as Assistant Principal with District: The number of years employed as assistant principal in the district regardless of any interruption in service. These amounts are added together and divided by the number of assistant principals reported for the district.

(Data source: PEIMS 30050)

Average Years Experience of Teachers: The average number of completed years of professional experience, regardless of district. Weighted averages are calculated by multiplying each teacher’s FTE coefficient (1 for a full-time teacher, .75 for a three-quarter-time teacher, and .5 for a half-time teacher, for example) by his or her years of experience. These amounts are added together and divided by the sum of all teachers’ FTE coefficients. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Average Years Experience of Teachers with District: The average number of years employed in the district regardless of any interruption in service. Weighted averages are calculated by multiplying each teacher’s FTE coefficient by his or her years of experience in the district. These amounts are added together and divided by the sum of all teacher’s coefficients. (Data source: PEIMS 30050)

Average Teacher Salary by Years of Experience (regular duties only): Total pay for all teachers in each category divided by the total teacher FTE count in that category. For the purpose of this calculation, the total actual salary amount is pay for regular duties only and does not include supplemental pay. For teachers who also have non-teaching roles, only the portion of time and pay dedicated to classroom responsibilities is factored into the average teacher salary calculation. Teachers are reported with zero years of experience (first year teacher), 1–5 years, 6–10 years, 11–20 years, 21–30 years, and over 30 years. (Data source: PEIMS 30060)

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary Average Actual Salaries (regular duties only): For each category, the total salary for that category divided by the total FTE count for that category. Only payment for regular duties is included in the total salary; supplemental payments for extra duties (e.g., coaching, band and orchestra assignments, club sponsorships) are not included. See Appendix B for lists of the PEIMS role IDs included in each category.

Teachers. Teachers, special duty teachers, and substitute teachers. Substitute teachers are either temporarily hired to replace a teacher or hired permanently on an as-needed basis. The District Teacher Salary Report and Graph also uses this definition in creating counts for various salary ranges.

Professional Support. Therapists, nurses, librarians, counselors, and other campus professional personnel.

Campus Administration (School Leadership). Principals, assistant principals, and other administrators reported with a specific school ID.

Central Administration (not on campus profile). Superintendents, presidents, chief executive officers, chief administrative officers, business managers, athletic directors, and other administrators reported with a central office ID and not a specific school ID.

Instructional Staff Percent (district profile only): The percentage of the district's FTEs whose job function was to provide classroom instruction directly to students during the 2019–20 school year. The instructional staff percent is a district-level measure and is calculated as follows:

total number of hours for district staff who were reported under expenditure object codes 6112, 6119, and 6129, and function codes 11, 12, 13, and 31

total number of hours worked by all district employees

Contact the Division of Financial Compliance at (512) 463-9095 for further details about this measure. (Data source: PEIMS 30040, 30050, and 30090)

Turnover Rate for Teachers (not on campus profile): The percentage of teachers from the fall of 2019– 20 who were not employed in the district in the fall of 2020–21. It is calculated as the total FTE count of teachers from the fall of 2019–20 who were not employed in the district in the fall of 2020–21, divided by the total teacher FTE count for the fall of 2019–20. Staff who remained employed in the district but not as teachers also count toward teacher turnover. (Data source: PEIMS 30040 and 30090)

Staff Exclusions (not on campus profile): The counts of individuals who serve public school students but are not included in the FTE totals for any of the other employee statistics. There are two types of these entries: individuals participating in a shared services arrangement and individuals on contract with the district to provide instructional services.

Shared Services Arrangement (SSA) Staff are staff who work in schools located in districts other than their employing district or whose assigned organization (in PEIMS) shows a code of 751, indicating that they are employed by the fiscal agent of an SSA. Only the portion of a person’s total FTE amount associated with the school in another district (or with the 751 organization code) is counted as SSA. SSA staff are grouped into three categories: Professional Staff (which includes teachers, administrators, and

2020–21 Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) Glossary professional support); Educational Aides; and Auxiliary Staff. Note that SSA Auxiliary Staff are identified by the type of fund from which they are paid.

Contracted Instructional Staff (District and Campus Profiles) refers to counts of instructors for whom the district has entered into a contractual agreement with some outside organization. Through the contract, the outside organization has committed to supplying instructional staff for the district. They are never employees of the reporting school district. (Data source: PEIMS 30055 and 30060)

Contracted Instructional Staff: The count of individuals who are not regular classroom teachers who have signed a contract with a district, nor are they shared services arrangement employees. Rather, these are instructors for whom the district has entered into a contractual agreement with an outside organization. Through the contract, the outside organization has committed to supplying instructional staff for the district. They include, but are not limited to, speech therapists, occupational therapists, and any other professional contracted staff working in a classroom on a dedicated basis. (Data source: PEIMS 30055)

Teachers by Program (population served): The FTE count of teachers categorized by the type of student populations served: regular, special, compensatory, bilingual/ESL, gifted and talented education students, and other populations. Teacher FTE values are allocated across population types for teachers who serve multiple population types. Percentages are expressed as a percentage of total teacher FTEs.
